Measurement of rain chemical composition was done in March to August 2016 to investigate temporal variation of atmospheric deposition in Bandung City. Rainwater samples are collected at four sampling sites. The chemical properties of the rain determined were pH and ionic concentrations of SO42-, NO3-, Cl-, Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, K+ and NH4+. The rainwater was typically acidic with the range of mean pH between 5.29 – 5.56 and mean electric conductivity value range between 16.37 – 19.96 μS/cm. Temporal variation showed higher SO42+, NO3+ and NH4+ concentration in August when rainfalls were the lowest (214.88 mm). Similar temporal variation for the mean pH (5.98) and electric conductivity (25.36 μS/cm) in August. Ca2+ highest concentration was observed in June. Generally, the the major component of precipitation chemistry were SO42- and NO3-, Ca+ and NH4+, for anion and cations, respectively. The largest proportions of the total anions in all sampling sites was SO42- ranged from 32% (Lembang) to 37% (Buah Batu) followed by NO3- (13 – 15%) and and Cl- (4 – 7%). For cations, NH4+ dominated with proportion ranged between 21 – 27% and subsequently Ca2+ (13 – 19%) and followed by Na+, Mg+, K+ and H+. The Neutralizing Factor (NF) results reveal that Ca2+ and NH4+ are the dominant neutralization substances in the rainwater. However it should be noted that reduced nitrogen (NH4+) act as mobile nitrogen that further will acidify the environment, particularly to soil ecosystem downstreams.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Acidic deposition,Atmospheric depositions,Chemical compositions,Ionic concentrations,Precipitation chemistry,Rainwater samples,Reduced nitrogen,Temporal variation[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1051/matecconf/201814708007[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
